Where do you carry most of your weight?

Everyone has their problem areas, I was curious what they were. For me, I feel I'm apple shaped. Most of my weight is my torso: my stomach, my arms, my back. I don't have a full bosom like some out you, though one would think I would considering most of my weight is in my upper body.

What about you? What are your problem areas and what are your tips for targeting those areas?

hi stacy201! im a good ol' hour glass, which means that when i put on weight its all over (thats how it is now)lol... anyway, walking i have found targets just about everywhere, esp when you swing your arms aswell :)

well i carry most of my weight in my belly.. Used to be mostly in my arms and butt, now that i'm getting older though i have seen a change.. actually i just noticed i carry alot on my back, arms, belly butt and even my neck.. YUCK! Where's the closest lypo station? LOL

I seem to carry weight pretty evenly all over...arms, legs, stomach, hips, butt..even in my face. I'm not sure that you can 'target' any one area as we are all kinda pre-wired to carry fat in different areas, but you can certainly do strength training for certain muscle groups to tighten up a bit and help to burn fat. But I think cardio is what really burns the fat...

All over for me. Like you, I'm lacking in the bosom area myself. Its hard to target everything. I just started on my weight loss journey (AGAIN!) a few weeks ago, so I've been doing what I can to have a well rounded fitness regimen. I do yoga, aerobics, light weights, crunches and that sort of thing.

You may be interested in this. I recently found this great DVD that I bought on a whim. I think it won an award in 2006. Its called the 10 Minute Solution: Rapid Results Pilates. There's five 10 minute work outs that target different areas of your body. You can create your own work out OR just do 1 section OR you can do the whole DVD. I also just recently learned there's a group of 10 Minute Solution DVD's and ordered a couple more from amazon.com.

Although I am under my goal weight I say I still carry the most &quot;non muscle weight&quot; in my bottoms and thighs and calves but at least I look much better now than last year... I need to tone them up more...

In my lower belly and thighs definitely! I'm just under 5 ft tall and so any weight I put on I really notice so it's frustrating. I'm already 115 and still need to lose another 5-10 lbs before I'll probably feel comfortable at my weight.

A friend sent this to me..As far as I can see, grief will never truly end.It may become softer overtime, more gentleand some days will feel sharp.But grief will last as long as Love does - ForeverIt's simply the way the absence of your loved onemanifests in your heart. A deep longing accompaniedby the deepest Love some days. The heavy fog mayreturn and the next day, it may recede.Once again, it's...
